Is this the future of PC Cooling? I saw a few comments that said Linus already did this video but I never saw it! I just thought this was awesome technology when I walked by the booth so I wanted to share. I am not a PC Channel but I was blown away. Just making videos on things I found interesting and stepping outside of just Mobile Tech. Thanks for the support!
This is not the same as what linus did. He made a system inside an aquarium and filled it with mineral oil. This new tech is a proprietary formula from 3M that probably has a much lower boiling point that of water or mineral oil, water boils at 100C which for most components would not be very good for the lifespan of the chips. This stuff boils off to dissipate heat and gets condensed back into a liquid. Pretty neat if you ask me. I've spent plenty of time in server rooms that have to be kept near 16C, tons of wasted electricity cooling the entire room 24/7.
@@Argosh Ah yes, instead of cooling the machines individually, allow us to flood the whole room with it and just send people scuba diving when you need maintenance done
technically, it's perfectly possible with destilled water for short time, untel the minerals are leached from the board/metals and turn the water conductive again.
@Elsa Debroglie The maintenance part shifts from the water loop to this loop. There's still going to be a pump, condenser and occasional top-up of the fluid.
@Elsa Debroglie the liquid is boiling inside the closed chamber, it still have to condense back into liquid form or 1. open air design, top up the liquid every few minutes and being too expensive and too much maintenance 2. closed chamber, build up of pressure in the chamber and risk of explosion. so while it's true that inside the chamber there's nothing to maintain, my concern stands in that there has to be a cooler outside to turn the gas back into liquid. it's not encased in massive heat sinks at the show. so I'm wondering what kind of technology are they using to remove the excess heat.
Shared the video with my dad, an IT security specialist (to underrate him greatly) ... this was his reply: We used it years ago, in one of the systems I worked on... It was FC-77.
@@brycering5989 yep, latent heat of evaporation, it takes a decent chunk of energy (heat) to make a substance change state (in this case from liquid to gas)
I can imagine these fluids being used in a completely passive cooling loop. The only thing needed that to work is for cpu/ gpu blocks that won't vapor lock with convection flow.
This is very cool. This liquid has some amazing potential with these properties. The non-stick factor is just the icing on the cake. Immersion might finally be possible without making a hellish mess out of everything. I doubt it will ever be mainstream outside of perhaps big server farms, but I sure hope that the cost of the compound eventually goes down to the point where it's viable for enthusiasts to play around with it. I sure would love to :)
Dry Water is what it has been nicknamed. Amazing stuff. It does not conduct electricity, and it does not corrode metal. The only downside is the boiling point is so low, it boils quickly, so your cooling solution must be beefy to counter that.
Some smaller applications could be done with this liquid. Could possibly have a case that fits only the GPU and liquid, and the liquid gets pumped to radiator. It would be better than the current liquid cooling method because the GPU is entirely submerged.
This Novak is awesome. A non electrically conductive, non corrosive, non toxic and environment-friendly liquid? I am not super up-to-date, but that alone blows my mind. Yes please! Make more of it and put it into lots of datacenters.
3m Novec is dry water From another youtuber in Russia who bought some, it cost him $150 for two litres of it It's boiling temperature is 40°c so you can put your hand inside the boiling liquid and not get any burns
Just thinking about the space saving potential. I know it takes a bit of space right now as a demo, but just look at how much space is saved with those graphics cards stacked with a few millimetre gap between them, amazing. That could be really cool for an overclocked system, especially considering you could reach sub zero cooling with a chiller no longer needing to worry about condensation. Very cool video, thanks!
"its too expensive for consumers" listen, this is the pc gaming community, if someone released a case designed for building with this and said "you just need to pay $2000 for the fluid itself" people would still buy it, especially pro streamers since this would be the quietest system in the world
yeah for real, some guy was talking about how they put this into fire suppression systems in servers. They have enough of this somewhere to just spray it all over a room a couple liters of it is for sure within some autistic pc gamer's price range
So, the gentleman states in the video that he was not allowed to name the graphics card. However, we already have knowledge on who the manufacture could possibly be, as well as which card was used. For starters, we can tell that the manufactures are most likely NVIDIA. The way were are able to tell this is by looking for the SLI & Crossfire configurations. AMD no longer uses Crossfire sense the release of their Radeon RX and Vega series, and only NVIDIA uses the design of the NV-Link, which are seen on these cards. We are also able to tell that the cards are not exclusive due to the fact that each of the cards individually are only provided with 8GB of V-Ram. This is just a couple of the observations I made during this video.
Liquid is probably Novec from M3 available for consumers for few years. It have around half of thermal capacity of water and it evaporate in much lower temps than water.
He referred to the liquid as a floural compound, which is freon. This is apparently a high molecular weight freon that boils at a much higher temperature than the freons used in refrigerators and AC. The bath felt warm to him (100°F - 120°F?), which suggests that the boiling point of the liquid is around that temperature. Since the bath can never exceed the boiling point of the liquid and since heat transfer to liquid is very efficient, all components are kept near that relatively cool temperature.
So does the boiling / phase change actually convect enough heat away to make a difference over a mineral oil submersed pc? Or is it just a cool looking thing to have the fluid boiling off the warm chips?
Only drawback is that the fluid costs a fortune. There will be gradual losses so you will need to top it up from time to time. Fluorinert FC-3284 and FC-72 are the most appropriate having a boiling point of 50/56C. 14lb/5kg-1gal/3.79L of FC3284 at chemworld-com is ~800$. The tech itself has been around for 50y or so.
Before anyone gets any idea's, that stuff cost about 600 a gallon, and its generally sold in large drums or 44lb containers. So unless you got a multimillion dollar supercomputer you need to cool your kinda SOL.
My question is if the liquid degrades over time and if so at what rate Also, how much better is it than mineral oil, aside from not getting the component wet...
My initial assumption is that mineral oil is a better choice as it's far denser and thus should be more efficient at absorbing heat. Also, mineral oil does not evaporate at the temperatures generated by even the hottest pc components, meaning you won't need to worry about vapor/pressure/condensers and all that. If I were to build a "wet" pc, I'd go with mineral oil, 100%. With that, this 3M liquid offers a huge benefit of not sticking to surfaces it touches, meaning that swapping components should be far, far easier than if they were submerged in oil.
@@andreirachko Quick answer, but no, mineral oils are not denser (usally less dense than water) but the Novec is around 1,4-1,6 the density of water. Heat capacity is probably in the same ballpark but mineral oils have a high boiling point, therefore no extra energy gets extracted from the system via phase change. Novec seems better in most regards but is hella expensive.
I've done mineral oil cooling before, but novec is so much better... Wish I could get ahold of some, but it's rare to see outside of commercial installations and when you do its ~$100 per liter!
Next lvl watercooling.this is way better then playing with tubes and fans.its dust free and the hardware is cooled and look very nice bubble bath.where to buy this liquid?
I know this video is pretty old I was looking up something else I figure I checked this one out but that liquid is actually mineral oil you can buy it at the store baby oil maybe it's different for a gigabyte but that's what you can use it's electronically neutral too I haven't tried it myself mainly because of how expensive it can get but it's definitely something I want to do
How does the Leidenfrost effect limit overclocking? It's probably why everything has to be vertical, but does all components being vertical limit this?
I am more than a little worried about having a fluorinated ketone that is constantly cycled through rapid heating and cooling. While, by itself, it doesn't seem to cause damage to the ozone layer, its structure is just screaming to break down into some low-molecular-weight fluorocarbons over time and wreak havoc on the ozone layer. Depending on its various breakdown pathways, that concern might be misplaced, but still.
"up to 4000 times better than air cooling" wait what... i assume he means without a heatsink!? i find it very hard to believe it cools that much better when heatsinks are involved..
Thats amazing they boil the oil to remove excess water and cool the pc ftom the backdide and still dont have to worry about dust cleaning. Albeit it does still need oil changes because it will break down the parts wont it? Is there some type of sealant you can spray on the pc before hand to slow down the degrading? If i had one i would use diffrrent viscosity oil and dyes so when the fan blows it looks all fluffy and colorful in there
it's not gonna work as water cooler liquid. The whole point is to have liquid-gas transform. Imagining your water loop gets filled with gas.... It's gonna explode for sure lol
Can someone in the industry get in contact with Coriant? They created dielectric coolant that allows you to stick your hand in while electronics are fully powered.
From a technological standpoint, this is as different from Mineral Oil cooling as Liquid Cooling is to Air Cooling. In computer years: Flintstones' car to a Tesla.
Mineral oil disintegrates plastic. Mineral oil PCs are gimmick builds, the maintenance is too high to be worth it for average consumers or the average DIY builder.
goes by the name 3M novec 7100, now my question is if i am willing to spend extra and if we take out the cost parameter then aprt from it are there any drawbacks of this kinda setup if used for consumer application?
I bought fluerinert for about 250 a gallon. One or two gallons can do it, but it just be a single phase system. This is not new stuff, 3m has specs for many forms of inert pc cooling liquid. The actual difficult is taking all of your wires and boards and removing the rubbery stealths and coating. This stuff will go foul and stop working as a thermal transfer if there are these kinds of plastics in your system. It is not corrosive to metals, but very damaging to many kinds of petro chemical based products.
now we get a data centers worth of iU servers and fill a swimming pool with this stuff and just lower the servers into the pool imagin the space-saving and electricity reduction
Mineral oil submerged computers have been around for years. It's pretty cheap and easy to build one. This is not new tech all they did was slap their name on the similar liquid and slapped an extremely high price for something you can get at a feed store for around $3 a gallon. You can even use baby oil. But with any liquid submerged computer you will need a radiator to cool the liquid.
Luke has done this actually oil cool pc. It was not this but some what similar Because this chemical does not conduct electricity, it is safe to keep the system inside the chemical.
True it is interesting and has been for years but at the end we keep trying to make something better than the last one. In this the cooling is way better than mineral oil pc. So we keep fiddling and make things better 👍

That may be effective on a cold place maybe but on a tropical place its a little bit skeptic for me.
@ about $1000 gallon still less expensive then some PC cooling solutions
goes by the name 3M novec 7100, now my question is if i am willing to spend extra and if we take out the cost parameter then aprt from it are there any drawbacks of this kinda setup if used for consumer application?
Also no dust and heat can be used for generating energy.
Very interesting.
But i wonder... What if it goes faulty and you have to open and repair it?
I bought fluerinert for about 250 a gallon. One or two gallons can do it, but it just be a single phase system.
This is not new stuff, 3m has specs for many forms of inert pc cooling liquid. The actual difficult is taking all of your wires and boards and removing the rubbery stealths and coating. This stuff will go foul and stop working as a thermal transfer if there are these kinds of plastics in your system. It is not corrosive to metals, but very damaging to many kinds of petro chemical based products.
This is absolutely mindblowing
So this was definitely a hype? I wish it would have worked on consumer custom pc's!
now we get a data centers worth of iU servers and fill a swimming pool with this stuff and just lower the servers into the pool imagin the space-saving and electricity reduction
Mineral oil submerged computers have been around for years. It's pretty cheap and easy to build one. This is not new tech all they did was slap their name on the similar liquid and slapped an extremely high price for something you can get at a feed store for around $3 a gallon. You can even use baby oil. But with any liquid submerged computer you will need a radiator to cool the liquid.
Is it safe to drink? Since it's non toxic.
Der Bauer did the same thing for gamescom 2017 on a consumer system
Serious question, what would happen if they put it in a pc water cooling loop?
Expansion would destroy it.
Luke has done this actually oil cool pc. It was not this but some what similar
Because this chemical does not conduct electricity, it is safe to keep the system inside the chemical.
Yeah they did theirs with Mineral Oil I think vs 3M. I just thought this was so interesting but it’s been around for years.
True it is interesting and has been for years but at the end we keep trying to make something better than the last one. In this the cooling is way better than mineral oil pc. So we keep fiddling and make things better 👍
